    Clouds soaked and streaked the dusty windows
    And people ran about, waving their arms.

  12. Buildings. Tall and austere, and all alike, rising into the sky. I live in one of them, and I could never recognize it from afar until a friend pointed it out to me. But lately, he doesn’t need my company anymore. I don’t want to sound like a clingy little whiny person, but I do miss my friend.

  13. is a place i live, is a place to be protected, is a place to meet people, is a place to keep your stuff, is a place to be creative, is a place to sleep, is a place to keep our history, and last but not least is a place to be together!

  17. Ich gehe langsam durch den Eingang und beschaue die Gallerie. Sie ist frisch erbaut worden und von großer Grazie. Geradezu zierlich fühle ich mich den starrenden Säulen gegenüber. Ich verlasse das Gebäude rasch, will nicht länger sein.

  20. so many buildings. tall as the sky, reflective as mirrors. their name denotes progress, just as climbing them represents progress. America is a country of buildings. They are homes, they are humans.

  22. Buildings, tall large, looming. Tall barriers, strange city prison. I long for the long view, the deserts, the unadulterated sights of oceans

  23. I like pretty shaped builidings. With pretty colors. I wish there was a buliding that had sparkly paint. And it had RAINBOWS. Oh my gosh, a sparkly rainbow building would complete my entire life. I would want to live in it.

  24. I watch as they tower above me, monoliths in the chaotic scene I’m trapped inside. I see them sway in winds that threaten to force open my jacket. I abhor my micro stature.

  25. Living here in Pittsburgh, compared to the buildings, I feel so small. They tower over you and are amazing to look at. I need to start taking more pictures of the city and posting them on tumblr because parts of it are truly beautiful and other parts are so artistic!

  26. Cheerily, I am so about the buildings today. Henceforth all interactions shall be designated to a building, as per the discussions had this morning with the chairpersons. Fourteen ideas are all it should take; I expect full cooperation.

  27. Tall buildings in the sky. They scare me because their height help. Don’t fall on me.

  28. as far the eye can see. just buildings. and all I wanted to do was escape. It was these very buildings that caused me to desire a life without them. their fruits had turned sour in my mouth and I wanted to wash it clean with the water of solitude and isolation.

  29. The buildings stretched high into the gray sky the color of pencil lead and funneled the cold air into rough curents of biting cold that buffetted the bundled shoppers as they pushed their way into through the shadows to reach a patch of sun

  30. Glass windows, all along the west side of the office.

    In the afternoon, our shoes melt to the concrete, and we are stuck there the whole night.

  31. The skyline of New York is the most beautiful sight in the world. If you’re on an airplane, or happen to be flying overhead, the buildings and shining lights can take your breath away.

  32. buildings are tall, they rise above everything we can walk on, you always wish you could be on top of one, to see more than anyone else can. You always wonder what others can see from the windows. the one that you can never look from.

  34. I lay on the cool ground looking up at the trees and buildings that surrounded me, feeling very small. Am I as really insignificant as I feel?

  35. Those buildings fill me from inside. Tall and gray spirits of the city inhabit my emptiness.
    I am getting lost in the crowds of those buildings,I dissolve in the melting pot of other people’s life stories.

  36. They tower us, they dominate our lives. They shelter us, despite destroying the shelter of others.

  37. My favorite part of Boston is right near the Old State House. It’s just this little tiny piece of history dwarfed by skyscrapers.

  38. The buildings have long since fallen down. Water fills the streets, half a dozen feet deep in places. Windows are broken, piles of rubble everywhere. A sign for the London Underground splays haphazardly across a small puddle of bricks. I can’t help looking at the destruction, awed, wondering what happened here.

  39. Bodybuildings. Das sind doch diese Dingsdabumsda. Mit den dicken fetten Muckis am Bauch und überall. Die betreiben Körperarchitektur. Tektonisch abgesichert.

  40. Inside buildings there are ants. Ants make things all day. They make things for other ants. The other ants don’t see them but they know they’re there.
